Whizzo Loner - Nanterre

Fehrplay's Mood Of Mind has done it again. Following the label head's own Spaces EP last month, they've got a dynamic debut from Russian Whizzo Loner today. The two-tracker Endless Doors showcases equally alluring and eclectic tracks featuring what feels like an expedition through countless landscapes and habitats - as though opening a series of doors to find jungles, savannahs, deserts, and forests behind them. Really hitting that theme home, the b-side "Nanterre" offers up a ton of life through its constant progression. While the sounds are undeniably electronic, there's just something about them that places you in vast and vivid environments. It starts you soaring above a savannah, before adding a little extra punch as you dart between mountains and dive through valleys. As we approach the midsection of "Nanterre," the journey reaches the placid, smooth surface of a great lake whose depths lead us to a previously unexplored, underwater cavern. And just like the final section of the track, this cave is cool and truly captivating, exuding some kind of alien allure. It's hard to follow/put your finger on and even after the track/expedition is over the feeling remains, leaving you pining for its enchanting charm once again. Stream the sonic safari "Nanterre" below and get it here.
